Engagement
Early reading. We have captured 6 original posts for this account, below the 8 we require before treating a median as settled. The numbers above describe what we have seen so far, not a finished profile of the account.
A typical post picks up 1.2K interactions against 298K followers, an engagement rate of 0.401%. Posts are seen about 89K times each, and 1.34% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 29.9% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.4 post a day over the last 30 days, though only 17% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 11:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 6 posts sampled, 50% carry an image or video and 33% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 11K interactions, about 8.8x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #dstv403, #enca, #ettienevanwyk. Only 6 original posts have been captured so far, fewer than the 8 posts we want behind a median before treating it as settled. Read the figures above as an early measurement of this account, not as a finished profile of it.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 11:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Formats this account uses
Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.
| Format | This account | Catalog effect | 95% interval | Accounts behind it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Image or video | 50% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 33% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | +15% | +14% to +16% | 32K |
- 50% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
- 33% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts.
- Its average post runs 284 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 15% above the same accounts' other posts.
These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

"Me siento muy bien viendo las ruinas de Gaza, es una política deliberada que hemos hecho, hemos destruido sus casas y barrios como Jabalia o Shujaiya fueron arrasados. En Siria, Líbano, Gaza, Irán, Yemen, Cisjordania... tampoco nos contendremos ni nos retiraremos". Israel Katz, el genocida ministro de defensa de "Israel", admitió que disfruta viendo destruidas miles de casas de familias palestinas y que la limpieza étnica ha sido una política deliberada, no fueron "acciones colaterales", dice textualmente que lo hicieron deliberadamente. En un mundo que no estuviese secuestrado por el imperialismo, estas declaraciones serían pruebas suficientes para juzgar a este asesino de masas y a toda la camarilla de genocidas de "Israel" por sus crímenes de lesa humanidad en Gaza.

AfriForum/Solidarity's latest theme is that Afrikaners like me are a tiny minority. In the 1980s people like me were also called 'fringe' because we opposed apartheid & most Afrikaners voted for it. I will oppose ethnic mobilisation & tribal machismo even if I'm the only one
